Maybe. Maybe not. All I know FOR SURE is that MOhammed’s sword is one of the big attractions at the Topkapi museum in Istanbul.

I was there in ‘93 and was appalled to see muslim mothers telling their children how holy and special those swords are. Those kids probably belong to ISIS today.

To: Veto!
I am reminded of this Arab quote:
Terrible he rode alone,
With his yemen sword for aid;
Ornament it carried none
But the notches on the blade.
"The Death Feud", An Arab War Song, Stanza 14. Tait's Edinburgh Magazine. July, 1850. Translation signed J. S. M.
